In Reply to: Replace separates with integrated? posted by mtbikeNH on May 3, 2016 at 09:34:20:
I've owned several separates over the years and few integrated amps. We moved to a new home a couple years ago and I lost my man cave basement listening room. I had a lot of space for equipment.I am now in my home office listening room and went through a few solid-state integrated amp trials until discovering the Ayre AX-7e. I also have the Rogue Cronus Magnum tube integrated which I still love. I've been a tube guy for years but I finally found a worthy solid-state integrated in the Ayre AX-7e so that's what I run most of the time now. I've seen them used on Audiogon in the $2000 range. There's also a shop called The Music Room in Broomfield, CO and they have a selection of used integrated amps.
Good luck!
